Vehicle History
"This vehicle was discovered in the desert in 1980. It was Truck No. 8 of W Patrol, one of the LRDG's original New Zealand patrols. The truck was retrieved in 1983 by Major General David Lloyd Owen, a former commander of the LRDG and chairman of the LRDG Association. It was given to the Museum by the Association."
